Hippeastrum (commonly known as Amaryllis) are popular for their indoor holiday color and are often given as gifts from October through January. They are easy to grow and are impressive flowers. Their large blossoms can measure up to 8 in. across. We only ship 1 large blooming bulb size to ensure well-proportioned plants, which are guaranteed to produce large, vibrant blooms for you. As bulbs are essentially storage mechanisms, they already contain everything needed to produce flowers. They are tropical and subtropical. All you will need to do is plant them and water. But best of all, they can be induced to re-bloom indoors for years to come. This Specialty Amaryllis kit comes with everything you need to grow this exotic plant: 1 Cherry Nymph Amaryllis bulb, a 5 in. x 6.5 in. metal sink like, white southwest chalk outer planter, a 5 in. nursery pot, planting medium and a set of growing instructions.
